A terrible thought has moved into my mind
Like an unwanted room-mate drunk on wine
It feeds on my happiness won't pay the rent
I must take proper measures to evict it
Did you know that Edgar Allen #Poe married his 13-year-old cousin - & then lied about it?
In 1836, Poe and his cousin, Virginia Eliza Clemm, married in Richmond, Virginia. Poe was 27, Virginia 13.
They told the Presbyterian minister that Virginia was 21 to evade the need for paternal approval (his uncle was dead).
Virginia's mother, Maria Clemm, Poe's aunt, approved of the #marriage.
The average marriage age at the time was 22.
Virginia died of tuberculosis at age 24.
Finally watched #Thunderbolts*, it was good. As far as superhero movies go. But you know, maybe after the reboot the universe take a few years break.
But if you are looking for a really bad film, give B'Twixt Now and Sunrise a chance. It's just 80 minutes, but if feels longer. it's so worth a watch.
* part of the title.
(for) Dreamland by Edgar Allan Poe, Edmund Dulac

I just read the poem for the first time, I haven't read much EAP despite it being my kind of thing. "Out of Space, out of Time" โค๏ธ
I think Dulac got the sense of the "presence" of Night. I like to freak out in the dark at night, that feeling of being "alone not alone", I like the dark empty neighborhood, I like the eerie companionship with other night denizens. ๐คฃ
